PlayStation 4 to allow cross-play with other devices – rumour

PlayStation 4 may allow for multiplayer with ‘smartphones and other devices”, a new report claims.

“Sony’s new console may also allow users to compete against others using different hardware, such as smartphones and other portable devices,” the Wall Street Journal claims in a new report, citing “people familiar with Sony’s plans”.

As the PlayStation 3 is already capable of cross-play with the Vita, it would seem to follow that the PS4 will expand on that capacity, perhaps to PlayStation Certified devices.
